Question

I have an embedded xml file which I’d like to have a property like this:

<level missions="[m1,m2,m3,m4,m5]"/>

I’d like to know how can I convert the string value [m1,m2,...] into an array, in order to get its value by index (a[0] == “m1”, a[1] == “m2”, etc.)

I tried Array(xml.levels.level.@missions)[0], but to no avail 🙂

There is no E4X method to do directly process string array values like that. You can use String#split() to convert the string value into an actual array:

var value:String = [e-mail] ();
var arr : Array = value.substr ( 1, value.length - 2 ).split ( "," );
